Yes mike that was a problem but not so much the rod falling out of the rubber plug but the whole rubber grommet coming off the plastic cup.this happened on a 130 class rod when I first went to use it so I crisscrossed wrapped the grommet to the cup with electrical tape and it hasnt done it again.Another problem if big boat rods are done the weight of guides on one side put a lot of stress on the plastic cup and the little hole seems to wear out or get sloppy so every once in a while it has to be epoxied to the shaft. what is the price on the amtack one I might even pick one up for a spare.I know I have a spare motor around here somewhere but a whole extra unit is worth it if it dies when your in the middle of curing a rod. what options does amtack have for speeds?
